Hermosa Beach is more than where our firm is headquartered. It's a part of how we think, work, and play every day.

Looking back on a busy summer, we've grown alongside the community we serve. We helped clients navigate the SpaceX IPO, welcomed a new advisor to the team, refined our custom investment models, and continued sharpening the client experience. It's been a season of real progress, and it's reminded us why being rooted here matters.

The South Bay is home to entrepreneurs, business owners, executives, and innovators building companies and careers across a variety of industries. But their financial lives are often genuinely complicated and rarely fit into separate buckets.

Business ownership and equity intersect with personal wealth and tax planning. Equity compensation creates opportunity and concentration. Life and career decisions affect taxes and long-term plans.

Hermosa Wealth helps bring the pieces together through comprehensive financial planning, investment management, and personal fiduciary advice.

We are proud to call Hermosa Beach home and to serve clients across the country.

The first major SpaceX lockup expires next Thursday, August 6th.

If you hold concentrated SPCX, now's the time to think through your strategy. We're currently working with our shareholders to discuss:

- Hedging strategies (collars)
- Variable prepaid forwards
- Diversification approaches
- Long-short equity strategies
- Direct indexing
- Early retirement!
- Tax planning coordination

Every situation is different, and we've found that investors have widely differing opinions on the best approach. We're here to help you walk through the decision-making framework that's right for your specific situation.

If you're holding concentrated SPCX and want a second opinion, we're happy to discuss.

We're pleased to introduce Nathan Flynn, MBA โ€” Managing Director & Wealth Advisor and head of our Hermosa Wealth Management office in Carmel, IN.

Ken and Nathan worked together at William Blair in Debt Capital Markets โ€” the kind of partnership you don't forget. When the opportunity came to bring Nathan on board to lead our Indiana expansion a few months ago, it was an easy call.

Nathan brings more than 30 years of experience in finance, investment banking, and large-scale infrastructure finance, having worked at JPMorgan, William Blair, and Fifth Third. His career spans significant municipal and infrastructure finance transactions, bringing deep institutional knowledge to wealth planning and financial advisory work. Northwestern Kellogg MBA.

That level of specialized expertise is rare at any firm, let alone an independent RIA. Nathan's background gives him a unique perspective on complex financial strategies and risk management for high-net-worth clients.

Based in Carmel, IN and looking to serve clients throughout the region. Let's connect.

SpaceX just joined the Nasdaq-100 this week. The stock still dropped that day, despite a wave of bullish analyst calls initiating coverage.

We put together a full breakdown of what we're working through with SPCX shareholders right now, written for current and former SpaceX employees and others holding a real concentrated position, not someone who bought a modest stake at IPO. Here's what we walk clients through:

- Hedging without selling
- Tax planning, gate by gate
- Diversifying the proceeds
- Variable prepaid forwards
- Long/short strategies for tax offset
- Building retirement income if you're ready to walk away

Read the full breakdown here:

If you're navigating a SpaceX position and want to talk through what fits your situation, you can schedule time directly or call us at (310) 870-8400.

Quietly, intentionally, we've been building.

What began as a focused investment practice has grown into something broader. A modern private wealth firm built for the full complexity of financial life.

We work with individuals, families, executives, retirees, and business owners who want more than a portfolio. They want a partner who understands the bigger picture: taxes, planning, transitions, and the long game.

Thoughtful advice. Disciplined investing. Coordinated planning. All tailored to you.

Grateful for the clients who've trusted us and excited for what we're building next.

Most pre-IPO shareholders focus on one number: the IPO price. Thatโ€™s usually not where the important decisions get made. The real questions look more like:

- How much concentration risk do you actually want to carry?
- What does the tax impact look like across different scenarios and across multiple years, especially in California?
- Which shares get sold first, and why does the order matter?

By the time most people start thinking about this, the planning window has already narrowed. Most of the work happens before liquidity, not after.

These are the same conversations weโ€™re actively having with pre-IPO equity holders across South Bay. If you want a second set of eyes on your situation, we're happy to connect.

Happy Easter! Wishing you a day filled with joy, renewal, and time well spent with family and those closest to you. Grat...
